I'm back! Yes, I took the past week off (hence the lack of updates) and I wanted to talk about my reasons, because it's something I've been struggling with a lot recently. In case you don't know, Secrets and Skin is a novel that I've already written and which I'm editing as I post. And promoting. … Continue reading Everything Except Writing
